Optimum wishbone angle?

[Macca_172]

Is there an optimum angle to aim for when setting ride height?
This is for a track only 172 so no need to worry about road related issues, I'm just looking for an angle to work back from so the steering geometry is at its "perfect" setting.

im sure i was always told that a perffectly horizontal wishbone was the ideal setup...?

Its a difficult one to judge as the wishbones are wedge shaped, so which surface is your datum or is it a centreline through the middle?

i should imagine its the centre line between where the balljoint joins the hub to the centre of the subframe bushes
